So having taken a fair number of shots of Beachy Head lighthouse (see last post), the incoming tide forced us to make our way back around the cliffs. On our way we noticed a gap in the clouds with some sunlight poking through. Realising it wouldn’t last long we quickly headed toward a flat patch of sand (just a few meters away) to set up to capture the light before it was gone. It lasted just a few minutes.

Really pleased I captured this and when I saw it on the computer screen it cried out to be made black and white. I’ve gone for my usual high contrast look to really emphasise the drama.
